Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after (i) the Open of Business on the Ex-Date in the case of a dividend or distribution or (ii) the consummation of the transaction in the case of a subdivision, combination, split, reverse split or reclassification. If any dividend or distribution or subdivision, combination, split, reverse split or reclassification of the type described in this Section 4.01(a) is declared or announced but not so paid or made, the Exercise Prices shall again be adjusted to the applicable Exercise Prices that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution or subdivision, combination, split, reverse split or reclassification had not been declared or announced, as the case may be.
(b) The issuance as a dividend or distribution to all holders of Common Shares of evidences of indebtedness, Securities of the Company or any other Person (other than Common Shares), Cash or other property (excluding any dividend or distribution covered by Section 4.01(a) or (c)), in which event the Exercise Prices will be adjusted based on the following formula: E1 = E0 x P – FMV P where: E1 = the applicable Exercise Price in effect immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution; E0 = the applicable Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution; P = the Fair Value of a Common Share as of immediately prior to the Open of Business on the second Business Day preceding the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution; and FMV = the Fair Value of the portion of such dividend or distribution applicable to one Common Share as of the Open of Business on the Ex-Date of such dividend or distribution.

However, if the transaction that gives rise to an adjustment pursuant to this clause (b) is one pursuant to which the payment of a dividend or other distribution on Common Shares consists of shares of capital stock of, or similar equity interests in, a subsidiary or other business unit of the Company, that are, or, when issued, will be, traded on a U.S. securities exchange, then the Exercise Price will instead be adjusted based on the following formula: (FMV + MP) E1 = E0 x where: E1 = the applicable Exercise Price in effect immediately after the end of the Spin-Off Valuation Period (as defined below); E0 = the applicable Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the end of the Spin-Off Valuation Period; MP = the average of the VWAP per Common Share over each of the 20 consecutive Trading Days commencing on and including the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution (the “Spin-Off Valuation Period”); and FMV = the average of the VWAP of the capital stock or similar equity interests distributed to holders of Common Shares applicable to one Common Share over the Spin-Off Valuation Period.

In the event that such dividend or distribution is declared or announced but not so paid or made, the Exercise Prices shall again be adjusted to be the Exercise Prices which would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared or announced.
(c) The issuance to all holders of Common Shares of rights, options or warrants entitling them for a period expiring 60 days or less from the date of issuance of such rights, options or warrants to purchase Common Shares at less than the Fair Value of Common Shares as of the date of announcement of such issuance, in which event the Exercise Price will be adjusted based on the following formula: E1 = E0 x N0 + Y N0 + X where: E1 = the applicable Exercise Price in effect immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution; E0 = the applicable Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution; N0 = the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution; X = the total number of Common Shares issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and Y = the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights divided by the Fair Value of the Common Shares as of the date of announcement of the issuance of such rights, options or warrants. However, the Exercise Price will be readjusted to the extent that any such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to their expiration. In determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders of the Common Shares to purchase Common Shares at a price per share that is less than the Fair Value of the Common Shares as of the date of announcement of such issuance, and in determining the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Company.

(e) The Company may from time to time, to the extent permitted by Law, decrease the Exercise Prices and/or increase the Number of Warrants by any amount for any period of at least twenty days. In that case, the Company shall give the Global Warrantholder, the Warrantholders and the Warrant Agent at least ten days’ prior written notice of such increase or decrease, and such notice shall state the applicable decreased Exercise Prices and/or increased Number of Warrants and the period during which the decrease and/or increase will be in effect.

(f) Notwithstanding this Section 4.01 or any other provision of this Warrant Agreement or the Warrants, if an Exercise Prices adjustment becomes effective on any Ex-Date, and a Warrant has been exercised on or after such Ex-Date and on or prior to the related Record Date resulting in the Person issued Common Shares being treated as the record holder of the Common Shares on or prior to the Record Date, then, notwithstanding the Exercise Prices adjustment provisions in this Section 4.01, the Exercise Prices adjustment relating to such Ex-Date will not be made with respect to such Warrant. Instead, such Person will be treated as if it were the record owner of Common Shares on an un-adjusted basis and participate in the related dividend, distribution or other event giving rise to such adjustment.
(g) Whenever any provision of this Warrant Agreement requires the Company to calculate the VWAP of any Security over a span of multiple days (including in calculating Fair Value), the Company shall make appropriate adjustments to each daily VWAP included in such calculation to account for any adjustment to the Exercise Prices that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Exercise Prices where the Ex-Date, effective date or expiration date, as the case may be, of the event occurs, at any time during such period.
